Discover what exponential growth is, learn how it differs from other growth types, and explore real-life examples like compounding interest and population growth.

What’s the greatest shortcoming of the human race? I’m sure we all have some suggestions, but according to physicist Albert Bartlett, it is “our inability to understand the exponential function.” ...

The purpose of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS) is to foster the development and dissemination of the theory and applications of statistics and probability. The Institute was formed at a ...

We consider, in an abstract setting, an instance of the Coleman-Gurtin model for heat conduction with memory, that is, the Volterra integro-differential equation ${\partial _t}u(t) - \beta \Delta u(t) ...

Moore’s Law states the number of transistors on an integrated circuit will double about every two years. This law, coined by Intel and Fairchild founder [Gordon Moore] has been a truism since it’s ...
